For they, is the kingdome and the power, and the glory
Forever...
The King`s a ruler, the ruler rules (x4)
[Run]
I`m the epitome of royalty, you versus me, it`s a joke
I`m a rage, amazing blaze, you cigarette smoke
Your video`s number one and that was part of my plan
Went from Rock Box to a whole countdown jam
Took rock music, switched and flipped and made it raw
Anyway you`ve played it, we`ve played it before in `84
Every show, a hundred thousand people or more
Famous still give us tours, and we be tryin` not to take em` all
I bake em` all quicker than Sara Lee, come battle me
Imagine that, what a sight that`ll be
Front page of the times, I can read the headlines now
Rev Run beat clown down, when tryin` to take his crown
The King`s a ruler, the ruler rules (x4)
I`m the reason you started rhyming
I`m the reason rap sales started climbing
That`s why I`m still headlining
I`m the King and before I leave your ass gonna learn
Yeah, y`all each wanna burn, wait your turn
Run, I`m a living legend, my suggestion is learn your lesson
I`ll leave you stressing, confessing and begging for a blessing
And whatever your impression..it better be,
that we the top pedigree bringing y`all energy since `83
I run this here since way back when
I picked up a pair of adidas, and make y`all wear em` again
If you thought it, I done did it, heard it, I done spit it
New cats wanna pay their respect, son I`m with it
But if not, I`m a reclaim the top of the charts
Doin` shows with dough flows frip `em apart
Other than that, I`ll just be holding my own
Crown royalty up on a throne, for real
The King`s a ruler, the ruler rules (x8)
[DMC]
Our father, who art in heaven
hollowed be thy name, thy kingdome come
Thy will be done
Forever...
The King`s a ruler, the ruler rules (x13)
